Absolute fatality.... Seriously though, thoughts and prayers to her. Got knocked out cold...

Great parenting by her father(whichever one he is):cautious: Way to let your little girl get absolutely smashed in the head there, guy:rolleyes: unreal.

Hope she gets some sort of gift or something from Yaya because she could very well have a concussion. Hope not but that did NOT look good.

That's what I meant above. Trust us to make them look awesome.
Yea it's typical Spurs to make teams look better than they are (or better than their current form)

But the way certain fans were gushing with pride after a 4-1 beating because we created a few chances against them was just an embarassing state of affairs that made us look like some league one team proud of their heros playing at Old Trafford in the cup and managing a couple of corners and a shot on target

There was nothing impressive about that loss, so what if we scored a goal and created a couple of other chances? we're Spurs ffs we should be gutted at losing games not proud of fighting losses (not least when getting hammered) especially when the likes of Newcastle, West Ham and QPR can go and take points off them

Nobody is looking good this term-even Chelsea. But they look the best of a frankly bad bunch.
We have looked excellent in patches but we seem unable to react to tactical changes. This season is up for grabs.
Let's grab it.

It just highlights to me what a window of opportunity we have had and wasted in the last couple of seasons by dismantling and unbalancing our squad instead of maintaining our position and kicking on while our respective opponents had these little wobbles

IMO we could and really should have used this chance to establish ourselves as CL regulars - we were perfectly placed to do so but instead we spunked a load of money without building a unit and we regressed just as our rivals really showed some vuneralbility

We won't grasp this opportunity - to do so we'd need to make at least 2 or 3 key signings in Jan (which we all know Levy won't do) and hope that Poch gets the team responding positively to his tactics and work ethic sooner rather than later. West Ham and Southampton are more likely to grap any opportunity than us

My personal opinion is that when the dust settles the top four will still be made up of four from Cheslea, City, Arsenal, Liverpool and Man U

There is/was a huge window of opportunity for us though and I can't help but think the decision makers at our club wasted it with a sequence of poor choices (almost a comdey of errors since the end of the Redknapp error or at least since Bale left)

Good to see Carroll start vs Arsenal. Even if it is only because Shelvey was suspended, again...Pretty sure this is Shelvey's like 2nd or 3rd one match ban this season. Clearly trying to stay ahead of Fazio and Naughton in that category:cautious:

Chambers fits right in with Arsenal. Goes down over nothing at all and stays down for a while to ensure a whistle is blown to stop the opposition from doing anything. Gets up and starts screaming for a foul at the ref. Just classic arsenal. Chambers has done it a few times already today and is up there with the team lead in that antic this season.

Quality from siggy there. He also has the tenacity and fight in him that eriksen lacks.

That was set up by Siggy fighting for that ball and out muscling Arsenal. You do not see that from our squad this year. Siggy has aton of heart and passion also. Something we dont see this year either.

I thought at the time it was a good move to move him on but we could really use him this year.

I want to laugh at Arsenal, but I can't bring myself to do it.


Especially as we know they'll score 2 in the last 3 mins.
